WW0229 Warnings

Damaging winds and large hail will be the main players from the storms today. The atmosphere is also loaded with moisture so watch for the possibility of flash flooding as well.

Parts of central Kentucky got in on some strong storms early this morning. These storms likely left some old boundaries floating around that should ignite more storms. Some of these could also be on the strong side. Track all the storms here…

I will update things as needed and will also use Twitter for the latest warnings. You can follow those Twitter updates by following me… @Kentuckyweather . These updates will also appear in the top right hand corner of this blog.

Take care.
